If you have already played Mass Effect 3, I could see many not being interested in this launch game. However, since a majority of original Wii owners never got a chance to play Mass Effect I think this game might be perfect for them to pick up with the system, especially now that they get to make choices based on Mass Effect 1 and 2 in the graphic novel before the game starts.
